    Well he said he normally doesn't stop in Memphis on his route. Sometimes all it takes is that one time...

    Those 357 mags are truly good to have. If you refer to the handgun ballistics, they are very close to the top while staying technically away from the big bores like the .500 or the 460 rowlands. I use super occasionally and the boom I have on my steel framed handgun does not make it fun. (I use a hogue grip set plus a hefty spring along with a shaved down syntethic material between the back of the spring and guide rod so that when the recoil reaches the end against the frame it does not hammer it too much. If you have too much material then your slide racking will become rather difficult..

    I owned a thunder ranch .45 revolver with a 4 inch barrel rated for +P and had to carry ACP rounds via a moon clip set in each of the revolving cylinders when reloading a bunch at a time. It was a wonderful gun, one that I would not hesitate to use when life is on the line. Possibly even more reliable than the semi auto.

    At the end of day the 357 mag is a good honest cartridge and will do what it needs to do against a bad guy.

    You can carry a pistol . Plenty of places to hide it your truck.
